Mike,

Thanks for the tips. I am glad to say that the dump & the reload last Saturday
night turned out to be a lot easier & faster than I thought it would be based
on your & Tim Pittson's experience. I don't know if they improved the dump &
reload function, but I am at 2.1.0.9 server level and the whole process only
took me about 40 minutes because the -t option only dumps/loads the tables that
were specified on the dump/load statement.
